Hey! I’m new here and would like some input. I’ve been working in a new position for almost 5 months. In that time I’ve witnessed some unethical and lots of unprofessional behavior. I’ve been yelled at and berated by my coworker 3 separate times because of minor errors. I’m ready to quit. There are so many major issues in this company that I don’t know if I want to subject my mental health to this degree of toxicity. I just don’t know how to move forward from here.

PSA for anyone here who is struggling with trauma, PTSD, depression, or any other mental health concern: Seek professional help today. Do not feel ashamed, and do not listen to your friends, family, community members who may tell you to just rely on duas and to stop acting crazy.

Duas alone and the feedback you get from others will NOT help you until you take the initiative to help yourself. Allah says this Himself in Surah al Rad (11).
